How large an expansion gap should be left between steel railroad rails if they may reach a maximum temperature 36.0°C greater th

an when they were laid? Their original length is 26.0 m.

Answer:

11 mm

Explanation:

Original length L' = 26 m

Increase in temperature dT = 36.0°C

The gap l =?

The coefficient of linear expansion for steel & = 12 × 10^−6 per °C

The gap will be gotten from the equation of linear expansion.

l = L' x & x dT

substituting, we have

L = 26 x 12 × 10^−6 x 36

L = 0.011 m = 11 mm

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Beta minus decay

Explanation:

Beta decay is due to a weak nuclear interaction, it takes place in the atomic nucleus and occurs when a neutron is converted to a proton, or a proton into a neutron. When a neutron is converted to a proton an electron and an electronic antineutrino are emitted from the nucleus, this is called beta minus decay.

A projectile is launched horizontally from a raised platform. If air resistance is ignored, then as the projectile falls to the
aliya0001 [1]

<h2>The option ( b ) is appropriate answer </h2>

Explanation:

When a projectile is projected from height horizontally . The only force acting upon it is the downwards gravitational force of attraction due to earth .

Due to this force its vertical component of velocity , which is in the downward direction will be increased .

As there is no force horizontally , the horizontal  velocity of throw will remain constant .

Thus ( b ) option is the correct option .

A bullet glider and a target glider both have a mass of 0.200 kg. The bullet glider is moving 0.450 m/s
Romashka [77]

Answer:

the two gliders collide, the mobile glider will transfer a bit of time to the fixed glider, which is why it comes out with a speed that is smaller than that of the bullet glider.

Explanation:

When the two gliders collide, the mobile glider will transfer a bit of time to the fixed glider, which is why it comes out with a speed that is smaller than that of the bullet glider.

Changes can occur that the gliders unite and move with a cosecant speed less than the initial one.

The whole process must be analyzed using conservation of the moment.

             p₀ = m v₀

celestines que clash case

             p_f = (m + M) v

             po = pf

             m v₀ = (n + M) v

             v = \frac{m}{m+M}

calculemos

            v= \frac{0.200}{0.200+M} 0.450

            v= 0.09 m/s

elastic shock case

           p₀ = m v₀

           p_f = m v₁ +M v₂

           p₀ = p_f

           m v₀ = m v₁ + m v₂
